BDFHYK 3.5in Front and 3in Rear Leveling Lift Kit for Silverado 1500

Our review of the BDFHYK 3.5in front and 3in rear leveling lift kit finds it best suited to Silverado 1500 and Sierra 1500 owners who want a straightforward bolt-on way to add tire clearance and level the truck. The kit raises the front by about 3.5in and the rear by about 3in to reduce factory rake, improve appearance and add undercarriage clearance without major suspension surgery. Installation is bolt-on and designed to leave factory strut assemblies intact, which is the single biggest practical benefit for DIY mechanics and weekend installers.

Key Features

• Compatibility: Designed specifically for Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500 model years 2007-2019 with the 2007 new body style, so buyers can confirm fit before ordering.
• Lift Height: Raises the front by 3.5in and the rear by 3in to provide more fender clearance for larger tires and a more level stance.
• Material Quality: Strut lift spacers machined from forged 6061-T6 aluminum alloy offer strength and a powder black coated adapter for corrosion resistance and a clean finish.
• Hardware: Uses grade 12.9 solid bolts intended to resist compression and warping over time, adding long term durability to the mount points.
• Installation: Bolt-on installation places the spacer on top of the strut without disassembling coil assemblies or drilling, saving time for DIY installation.
• Function: Improves vehicle look and protection by increasing distance between frame and ground to better handle road obstacles.

Who It's For

The kit is for owners of 2007-2019 Silverado 1500 or Sierra 1500 who want a simple, cost-effective way to level their truck and run slightly larger tires without replacing struts or springs. Enthusiasts who prefer bolt-on solutions and those who plan to install the kit themselves will appreciate the straightforward process.

It is not for owners of older or different body style trucks, nor for those seeking a large suspension lift or who require custom geometry tuning; professional alignment after installation and attention to suspension geometry are recommended for those pushing tire size or off-road use.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Easy bolt-on installation preserves factory strut assemblies and reduces install time.
• Materials and finish, including forged 6061-T6 aluminum and powder black coating, provide corrosion resistance and a clean look.
• Effectively levels front to rear and provides clear, solid lift height for added tire clearance.
• Intended grade 12.9 bolts add strength at critical mounting points.

Cons

• Some customers reported bolt length or fit issues, which may require verification or replacement bolts for a proper fit.
• The lift height is governed by suspension geometry, so the actual front rise may not be a precise 1:1 ratio to spacer thickness.

Our Verdict

The BDFHYK leveling kit is a practical, value-conscious option for Silverado and Sierra owners who want to level their trucks and fit larger tires with minimal effort. Its forged aluminum parts and bolt-on design make it an economical upgrade for DIY installers, but buyers should check bolt fitment and plan for a post-install alignment to maintain proper suspension geometry.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this fit my 2006 or pre-2007 model?
No. The kit is specified for the 2007 new body style through 2019 models only; earlier body styles are not covered.

Does installation require strut removal or coil disassembly?
No. The design installs on top of the existing strut so coils do not need to be disassembled and no drilling is required.

Will I need an alignment after installation?
Yes. Because the lift changes suspension geometry, a professional alignment after installation is recommended to ensure proper handling and tire wear.
